great for a celebration!

by eroomje at Citysearch

We celebrated our anniversary with 10 of our family, ages 71 to 11 and all had a great time. The food was excellent, several choices, all delicious. The crew carefully took me aboard in my wheelchair and continued to be attentive. One grandson is a picky eater, so they made him 2 grilled cheese sandwiches!

The boat was clean and we had wonderful views while seated. Very comfortable. Rest rooms were very clean, also.

The views are so beautiful, the sun was setting, it was the perfect time to sail. We will definitely go again.

• Pros: Crew is attentive, food excellent
• Cons: Music was a little loud.

A Great way to be introduced to NY

by TheBlairs at Citysearch

This was our first trip away from our kids since our first was born. It was romantic, a perfect way to view NY as first-timers and we were treated like royalty from the ticket gate to the exit! The food was timely, well presented and so delicious. We took so many pictures of Lady Liberty, the bridges and the skyline. It was by far my favorite part of our entire trip. Did I mention the singer? She looked like Demi Moore and sang Jazz beautifully. The band never missed a note, but being the mother of a pro drummer, I did miss having one. Well worth the money, come on, live it up!

• Pros: Wonderful food, service and entertainment
• Cons: What no drummer?

great for romantic and memorable night

by gurjak at Citysearch

When I booked a table in Bateaux cruise I expected everything would be perfect because of the price that I paid and almost in all points the restaurant met my expectations.Very nice crowd,pleasant live music and songs,beautiful views of Manhattan at night and GREAT ,simply OUTSTANDING customer service.I may say that the route,music and our waiter Shanwn (I might his name incorrectly) just simply made our night.He was so attentive,polite,and helpful.However,food was so bad that we mostly ate bread and butter instead of our meals.Filet mingon, my favorite dish, was untasty,it either was old or just overcooked(I couldnt find out cause of the sause with which it was covered) and the salmon was also disgusting. I highly recommend this cruise of everyone who whats to have romantic and amazing night but make sure that you eat something before to get on the board.

• Pros: Service,Manhattan views,live music and ambience
• Cons: FOOD was just terrible
